Adoption of orientalists policy by the Abbasi's which was joined by the influence of new ethnic elements and social classes and also the formation of issues like the establish of Al-buway and Seljuk government and cultural developments and the influence of cultural resources and center and new ideas and also Abbasi's using religious tools such as attribution to prophet, benefiting from mahdism thinking, claiming the divine caliph and the divine legitimacy of the government and the caliphate to gain legitimacy and on the other hand, accepting the emirate of domination in times of weakness, all made the path for the fundamental changes in various aspects of the Abbasi's Caliphate such as the structure of political power.
